Trouble linking tables together

[#1]

Got a linking problem. Made a printscreen of it and the red fussy line is the thing I want. Renaming "Kostenplaats" to "kp1" does not work. When the scripts loads, it ends with: Cannot execure script! Does anyone know a solution?

[#2]

Hi

First, to ensure the linking on the red line then either:

Rename kp1 to kostenplaats

OR

Rename kostenplaats to kp1

This will ensure that QlikView forms the links that you want, HOWEVER, and this is a big HOWEVER

You dont want that!!!!

This will create a circular reference which will make results completely unreliable, the linking that already exists in your picture above tells me that you should be able to execute any analysis you want already, you shouldn't need any more linking because all tables are linked. Do you have any specific problems that are being caused as a result of the above model?

Hi,

you also can create a key table, which places the Kostenplaats or kp1 field as keyfield. Also take the Afdeling_ID into this key-table.

Then based on the Kostenplaats/kp1 you can add the Contactgroepomschrijving (don't exactly know why u use a textfield as keyfield in this mather; use the ID instead) to the keytable too and link the other tables to the keyfield.

That way you avoid getting a circular reference.

Well the thing is that the table dagen$ is a crosstable trough Excel. This crosstable links the everything to ContractgroepOmschrijving in the other table. BUT the kp1 is not linked to anything.

CrossTable(ContractgroepOmschrijving, Budget)

LOAD

Kostenplaats as kp1,

[1VG wonen] as [1VG],

[2VG wonen] as [2VG],

[3VG wonen] as [3VG],

[4VG wonen] as [4VG],

[5VG wonen] as [5VG],

[6VG wonen] as [6VG],

[7VG wonen] as [7VG],

[4LG wonen] as [4LG],

[7LG wonen] as [7LG],

[6GGZ_C wonen] as [6GGZ C]

FROM

D:\Qlikview9\Testbestanden\begroting.xls

(biff, embedded labels, table is dagen$);

The kp1 field must be matched to kostenplaats. If I change the crosstable to CrossTable(Kostenplaats, Budget) then this is solved but then the other fields are not matched with the field in the other table:

Load Omschrijving as ContractgroepOmschrijving,

"Contractgroep_ID";

SQL SELECT *

FROM "DataBI_Versie4".dbo."PCD_Contractgroep";

See, so I have to link those fields.... Maybe another way to do this?

Rey-Man, How does a key table work? And can you help me with it?

[#6]

Hi Richard,

basicly you take the table which should create the circular reference as start.

In your case it should be the PCD_afdelingen or the dagen$ table,. Those tables both contain multiple links to other tables.

You should starting with loading the 1th table:

for example:

load the PCD_afdelingen.

Then load a new table with both the keys:

Kostenplaats and Afdeling_Id

Then drop one of the linkfields. from the PCD_Afdelingen

load the next table

Then join the key's into the keytable and drop all the key''s but one.

Then you should have:

------------- -------------- ------------

| table 1 | ------------------------- | keytable | ----------------------- | table 2 |

------------- -------------- ------------

Hope this is a little clear to you.

Never worked with keytables before so I hope you can get me started with my code. This is my code so can you tell me what to do? (The code is wrong because of the circular reference)

Rey-man: Thx for your input but I cannot get it working. Can you take a look at my posted code above?

Hi Richard,

the beginning is good:

Should be something like this. Of course I've done this blind, so there may be some error's in the script.

thx for your input. I'm gonna try to get this working.
